Madame X ~ I know it is hard try not to get so worked up, Saturday will be here before you know it.

RMB ~ Congratulations on you second beta. My RE said that 90% of woman spot during early pregnancy make sure you let your RE know.

texasgal39 ~ So sorry for your loss. I was also on the May cycle board and we lost our little one at 7 weeks. DH bought me a video monitor for mother's day which we returned after the m/c.

LYD10 ~ Good luck today, sending you strong beta vibes!!!

Blueeyedreamer ~ How exciting tomorrow you will be PUPO! Tons of sticky vibes!!!

Dreams2009 ~ Being PUPO on father's day is wonderful!!!! Your doctor sounds like a pretty good man. Sending you tons of sticky vibes.

Lauren ~ No not 12 million only 12 and ideally you only need to have one good one for every egg you produce if you do ICSI. It's weird we have male factor however they focus mainly on me and never recommend anything to produce better sperm?

Sunshine1576 ~ How are you doing in TWW and do you plan to POAS? Thank you for keeping up the list.

Anton ~ It is only normal to pick out of the necessities for the our future babies, we invest so much emotion and time in baby making we need allow ourselves some enjoyment.

AFM ~ We had a wonderful father's day, now it's Monday morning and back to the grin. However this is only a 4 day week for me. DH is going to Tahoe this weekend and I am taking Friday off to spend with our son.

And we are a go for transfer today at 3:30. I could not fall asleep last night. I think I finally fell asleep about 3am. DH came in and woke me up about 6:20 so he could give me my PIO shot. Just got the call a few minutes ago from the nurse saying we have 2 very strong embryos and we are good to go for transfer today. I forgot to ask why we weren't doing a 5 day transfer. Is that a bad thing?

[Sunshine1576]

Thanks Nicksgam and MadameX...The 2ww is going better than expected lol countdown is now 9 days, hopefully I can make it through "crazytown". lol Never had much luck with testing early so it might be best to wait it out...I haven't even requested off from work for the doctor appointment, but it will be exciting nonetheless if I make it till the 29th.

I also wanted to send out a special congratulations to AlleyKittie for her excellent beta! This has been the board with so many blessings, I am going to continually pray for you all. xoxoxo Sunshine1576

[Dreams2009]

Wndrlgrl - Will be thinking about you this afternoon for your transfer!! That part is the easiest compared to everything else we go through to get to this point

Nicksgam - Thanks for the thoughts! The 2ww now is in front of me and I'm sure it will be a long one

Madame X - Transfer went great yesterday! We transferred two perfect embabies and also received a picture of all 10 of them to take home with us Doctor said I have a 60% chance of pregnancy and a 20% chance of twins.

AFM - I received the final call from the embryologist today and they said I have 2 left to freeze on morning on day 6. So those will be added to the other 6 we frooze on Day 1 after ER. Also - I think I may have changed my mind already on when to get my beta test. I know I said yesterday that my office wouldnt be open to do the bloodwork until 7/5 since I will be on vacation until 7/2; however when I called to make my appointments this morning they gave me the option to call in a script to Quest in SC and I can go on 7/1 there. I think I'm going to do that now so I do not have to wait the long 4th of July weekend Now the biggest tasks will be figuring out how to get to the center without bringing MIL & my mother wanting to go with (the vacation is a combo family vacation). We have decided to not tell either families we are going IVF to try and avoid the constant questions of people who just don't understand. So as for now....R&R today, back to work tomorrow, progesterone testing 6/24 and beta on 7/1. I have nothing going on yet with my body; no cramping, no spotting, no twinges, no bloating....so hopefully that is okay for now. Still 11 days left until beta!!

Try and get some sleep today and good luck with the transfer. Sending you tons of sticky vibes!!!!

[NancyB]

The 29th is going to be a big day around here.

RMB your u/s is that day, right? Same for me. My u/s is the 29th.

Sunshine you have your beta on the 29th, right?

Seems like someone else mentioned something on the 29th but my brain isn't remembering it right now.

I need to do more personals but out of time right now. I'll have to come back later.

Madame X -- when is your beta?

[Sunshine1576]

Absolutely Nancy, the 6/29 is going to be a BIG day for several of us, I am about to bust with so much excitement, cannot wait and I feel lucky that it's the same day as your ultrasound!

[Starry]

Hi everybody!
I'm new to the forum and had my ET on 10june and am in my 2ww now..
Feeling has been on roller coaster ever since embarked on this journey.. And now I'm really very scared of the outcome..
Praying very hard...

[Sunshine1576]

Welcome Starry, so glad you found us! When is your beta?

[Starry]

Welcome Starry, so glad you found us! When is your beta?

Hi sun, thanks for your warm welcome and invitation!
Mt beta is on 24June. Hmm...do you think the hcg jab that I had last thur is still inside my body?
I tried testing at home but I can't really see the line (very very faint line,almost can't see)
Thanks so much!

[Madame X]

Dropping in from my phone so hard on here but....
Nancy ~ My beta is this Friday, 6/24. Had some spotting today after a walk, hope all is good!!

[Sunshine1576]

Sounds like 6/24 is also a BIG day on the boards! Madame and Star my prayers will be with you both. I don't know if the hcg is still in, I read it takes 10 days but I'm only going by what Ghost wrote. Ghost is someone who is very insightful and responsive on our forum. I have always wanted to personally meet Ghost and shake his/her hand but for now Ghost remains here with us.

AFM: I am getting ready for another fun day with my neighbor's daughter, Belle's (9 yrs old) tomorrow. Today she came over and we played in crafts making jewerly and hairbows. She also made my best friend's daughter the sweetest card that we are going to mail tomorrow with a box of stuff we created, letting it be a surprise on her doorstep! Belles told me about a fabulous british restaurant called Willows, and we're going to sip on hot blueberry tea together, maybe have sconces and finger sandwiches... She said the owner is very particular about how we hold the teacup, lol it's going to be more a treat for me! She told me she's making a "grocery list" for Hobby Lobby but I know we'll spend hours in there easily! I have to work tomorrow night but I am very excited about my girl time with Belles!
